Bronte Tree Lighting

Bronte Village will hosted its annual open house and tree lighting ceremony, Saturday (Nov. 24).
Held at Centriller Square at 2410 Lakeshore Rd. W., Bronte businesses with red balloons in the windows hosted an open house and offered refreshments, samples, demonstrations, giveaways, special offers and gift ideas — not to mention caroling going on throughout the village.
Santa and Mrs. Claus also paid Bronte Village a visit, while children had the chance to have their photo taken with Santa or dance with Old St. Nick.
Holiday crafts from www.momstown.ca and festive treats from Denniger’s Foods of the World and other Bronte BIA businesses were also on tap.
Later in the afternoon, the Oakville School of Music and Performing Arts regaled passersby with old holiday favourites, featuring the voices of Vanessa Ciofani, Emily Smith, Jessica Tan, Morgan Lalonde, Elyse Bryan and Alexandra Lazenkas.
The 60-plus person Tempus Choral Society, directed by Brian Turnbull, also entertained those present, which was followed by the official tree-lighting ceremony shortly after.
